“My husband and I were looking for a good early development school for our daughter. We found this school through a recommendation from a friend and I must say I am very content. There is no school that I have encountered that values the friendships, teachers and goals for children. Everyday I pick up my daughter from school after nap, she always tells me her unique activity of the day. The teachers are amazing here. My daughter started in the dolphins class age 2 and now she is in whales at age 4. I am pleased to see that this location is secure with badge access and the directors and Owners are approachable and very well connected with the parents from start of day to end of day. I also appreciate the beautiful events that keep the parents engaged in their child’s milestones and holidays. Thank you Goddard for giving our daughter continuous opportunities of growth in this prestigious academy.”
“As a guide and parent I am always amazed by the support and dedication our school overs. It completely aligns with my expectations and more. Guide truly care for the child’s education and follow their independence and individual needs. I love what I do and I love what I receive for my children. Let’s go toddlers! Guidepost has truly created a genuine Montessori atmosphere.”

1111 Riley St, Folsom“We always have a great time at KidsPark in Folsom. Olivia is always kind and welcoming. I was very concerned in the beginning because my daughter is autistic and nonverbal. But Olivia answered all my questions and concerns and she made me feel comfortable about leaving my daughter there.”
“Infant room staff is AMAZING. Period. Full stop.
Take it from two working parents - they spend more wake time with our daughter M-F... Literally could not ask for more.
With how expensive daycare can be in general, I never thought I would feel like we were getting FAR MORE than our money's worth.
We're not wealthy - but it's the one bill we're always happy to pay.
God bless folks who can be full-time parents - but these ladies are absolute pros... Can't imagine doing it without them...”

844 Fieldstone Ct, Folsom“Where do I begin! I’m Ms. Elizabeth, I’ve been the lead Preschool teacher at LEA since December of 2020. I completed my bachelor’s degree in Liberal Studies while teaching here and I am now moving on to Elementary. Little Explorers Academy is not just a daycare, but it is a family. Students, their parents, and their teachers collaborate in the most caring way, and we hold each other to the highest standards. LEA is not a corporate daycare that sees a child as a number. Every child is a part of the family, and their teachers care for them in this manner. Staff turnover rates are extremely low at this daycare, as administration promotes the structure of a work-life balance. Students here grow in a Montessori- like- cohort from ages 0-5, and many establish life-long friendships. The infant teacher, preschool teacher, and Ms. K provide students with the best quality education, routine, and meals. LEA has won the best food program award in the Folsom area for the last 5 years in a row, thanks to Ms.K’s spectacular cooking, and attention to nutritional value. Students become extremely well-rounded as a result of LEA’s program. Graduates from Little Explorers Academy have no problem moving on to kindergarten, as we promote manners, politeness, provide adequate education, and give students a sense of security and trust in their teachers. I am so sad to move on from LEA, as the students here have become my family. However, I have openly planned since my hire date in 2020 to make my way to Elementary after graduating with my BA. Oncoming staff are chosen with such diligence. Our new preschool teacher has a heart of gold, and I have been helping her grow accustomed to our routine over the last 3 weeks. I wouldn’t want to leave the kiddos with anyone else! All in all, if you are new to LEA, trust that your child is in the best hands possible ❤️Sincerely,Ms. Elizabeth”

410 Glenn Dr, Folsom“I went to La Petite from like 2000 to 2002/3 and still have nightmares about the bathroom doors. I won’t be too harsh about everything else, as I’m hoping it’s changed since then, but at 26 years old I had a nightmare last night about the bathroom doors and the big kids and teachers watching me go potty. If you haven’t changed them— I highly suggest it as it’s caused me trauma for years. Also hi, Ms. Chris—you were always the best.”
“I cant say enough about Kindercare natoma station. There has been so many teachers that made my sons experience fantastic. Parveen the director made it feel like a second family to my children and I. They had my son since he was 4 months to 2 years old. Unfortunately I moved jobs and had to change him to a closer daycare. Kindercare was so great for him and his development. He learned to talk and say so much there. Parveen was always so easy to talk to and really cared. Michelle was also one of my favorites. She was his first teacher there. You will not regret taking your babies here. They will be treated like family and you'll always be updated with pictures and events throughout the day. Thank you Kindercare. we miss you!”
“Lexington Hills Kindercare has been our primary childcare since moving to the area in 2019. At the time, I had toured 10 facilities in the area and I chose this location because I really enjoyed talking to the director and assistant director. The place was clean, the kids seemed happy and well cared for. My son was 3 when he started, and since he was small, he'd been previously babied and very behind in verbal communication. Within weeks at Kindercare he was speaking full sentences.I now have my daughter there since 3 months, and we've been very happy with them. I can't say enough glowing things about the infant room caretaker. When we had a medical emergency in the family, she and her team made me a care package. It's little things like this that go beyond just being a corporate center. With the recent incident, we had our concerns about staying. We met with the Regional Director and talked about our concerns. We feel confident that they're taking what happened very seriously and they never want something to happen again. We were told about their safety review, trainings, and the new trainings that will be coming in the future. The woman that was fired had not lived up to requirements and with her departure, the Regional Director is reviewing and scrutinizing every part of the center personally. My kids love the teachers, and I still put my trust in this Center and the wonderful people there. There's improvement that we want to see in the next few months, but we have no doubt they'll get there.”
“So happy to have found Cadence Prairie City for our family! My son recently started in their Barnyard classroom and I can't tell you how appreciative I am of the teachers in there. They are so helpful at drop off assisting my son and helping him settle in for the day as he struggles with separation anxiety. The love and dedication these teachers have for their students in their care is extremely apparent! I'm so happy we found Cadence for our son! The director and assistant director are so helpful and responsive! Whenever I have any questions or concerns, they're answered or addressed immediately and always in a professional manner. We love Cadence @Prairie City!!!!”
